SUMMARY:Teen Genre Book Club 13 Minutes by Sarah Pinborough
DESCRIPTION:Teens have voted on their favorite fiction genres and have picked a great teen title from each. March is for MYSTERY and our mystery is 13 Minutes by Sarah Pinborough. Here’s a fan-made book trailer \nNatasha is the most popular girl in school. So why was she pulled out of a freezing river after being dead for thirteen minutes? She doesn’t remember how she ended up in the icy water that night\, but she does know this—it wasn’t an accident\, and she wasn’t suicidal. Now\, Natasha’s two closest friends\, who are usually her loyal sidekicks\, are acting strangely. Natasha turns to Becca\, the best friend she dumped years before\, to help her figure out the mystery. As an outsider\, Becca believes she may be the only one who can uncover the truth…which is far more twisted than she ever imagined. \nTeens\, pick up your copy on the New Book shelf just outside of the Teen Room\, check it out with a friendly Circulation clerk to get the special due date. \nThis FREE program is intended for teens in grades 6-12. Registration is not required. For additional information\, please contact Susan at susang@dkpl.org or at (815) 756-9568 ext. 3400. \n

SUMMARY:Great Souls Film Series: Seven Years in Tibet
DESCRIPTION:The DeKalb Public Library and the Egyptian Theatre present the “Great Souls” film series\, a screening of three FREE cultural movies throughout the spring. A panel discussion will be held in late spring to discuss the cultural beliefs and values represented in the films. \nThe series begins with Seven Years in Tibet (1997)\, the true story of Heinrich Harrer\, an Austrian mountain climber who became friends with the Dalai Lama at the time of China’s takeover of Tibet. \nThis movie is rated PG-13 and has a running time of 2 hours and 19 minutes. \nThis program is made possible by the Brian D. Slavenas Center for Cross-Cultural Understanding. Brian was born in DeKalb on December 19\, 1972. He graduated from DeKalb High School in 1991\, after which he served two years in the Army Airborne in Italy. While getting his degree at UIUC in industrial engineering\, he also pursued a pilot’s license\, a flight instructor’s license\, a commercial aircraft license\, and taught flight. \nOn November 2\, 2003\, the Chinook 47 helicopter Brian was piloting was hit by a should-fired missile while flying over Fallujah\, Iraq. The flight engineer survived the crash and he said that Brian’s last words were “automatic rotate”\, putting the helicopter in emergency mode. While both pilots and fourteen others were killed\, twenty of the 36 people on board survived thanks to Brian’s quick thinking and reaction. The purpose of the Center is to provide educational materials and programming with information and insight on world cultures to the public. \nThis series is open to all and intended for adults and mature teens. No registration is required. All films will be shown at the Egyptian Theatre in DeKalb. \nFor additional information\, please contact Samantha at samanthah@dkpl.org or at (815) 756-9568 ext. 1701. \n

SUMMARY:Cinematic Teen Reads: Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda
DESCRIPTION:Compare the book Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli to the trailer for the upcoming movie “Love\, Simon.” Does the trailer look like it departs from or follows the book? What did you think of the book? How well did Becky Albertalli write from the perspective of 16 year-old Simon? How well did the story depict the anxiety of “coming out?” Does it look like actor Nick Robinson was a good choice for the lead role or would you have chosen someone else if you were the casting director? \nAfter the program\, enter to win a $25.00 AMC gift card to see “Love\, Simon\,” or another movie of your choice\, sponsored by The Friends of DeKalb Public Library. \nSixteen-year-old and not-so-openly gay Simon Spier prefers to save his drama for the school musical. But when an email falls into the wrong hands\, his secret is at risk of being thrust into the spotlight. Now\, change-averse Simon has to find a way to step out of his comfort zone before he’s pushed out—without alienating his friends\, compromising himself\, or fumbling a shot at happiness with the most confusing\, adorable guy he’s never met. \nCopies available on the New Book shelf by the teen room for you to check out and read. Check one out with a friendly Circulation clerk to get the special due date. \nThis FREE program is intended for teens in grades 6-12. Registration is not required. For additional information\, please contact Susan at susang@dkpl.org or at (815) 756-9568 ext. 3400. \n

SUMMARY:Free Hearing Tests
DESCRIPTION:Hearing is one of the most important senses for learning and education. Each year\, many children suffer from undetected temporary and permanent hearing loss. The consequences of having hearing loss include speech and language delays\, lower academic achievement\, emotional distress\, frustration\, and fatigue because one is unable to hear clearly. The good news is that the negative effects of hearing loss can be reduced and minimized with early detection and early intervention. \nDoctor of Audiology students and faculty at Northern Illinois University are conducting a research study to examine and compare the hearing status of children in the United States and in several countries in Asia and South America. They will offer FREE hearing tests to children ages 0 to 18 years at the DeKalb Public Library. Accompanying family members are also welcome. All tests are non-invasive and follow standard hearing procedures offered in hearing clinics around the world. Please come by for a free hearing test. Your participation in the research study is voluntary. \nFor more information\, please see http://chhs.niu.edu/about/staff/chung.shtml or contact Dr. King Chung at kchung@niu.edu. \n

SUMMARY:Free Hearing Tests
DESCRIPTION:Hearing is one of the most important senses for learning and education. Each year\, many children suffer from undetected temporary and permanent hearing loss. The consequences of having hearing loss include speech and language delays\, lower academic achievement\, emotional distress\, frustration\, and fatigue because one is unable to hear clearly. The good news is that the negative effects of hearing loss can be reduced and minimized with early detection and early intervention. \nDoctor of Audiology students and faculty at Northern Illinois University are conducting a research study to examine and compare the hearing status of children in the United States and in several countries in Asia and South America. They will offer FREE hearing tests to children ages 0 to 18 years at the DeKalb Public Library. Accompanying family members are also welcome. All tests are non-invasive and follow standard hearing procedures offered in hearing clinics around the world. Please come by for a free hearing test. Your participation in the research study is voluntary. \nFor more information\, please see http://chhs.niu.edu/about/staff/chung.shtml or contact Dr. King Chung at kchung@niu.edu. \n

SUMMARY:Movie Showing: The Emoji Movie
DESCRIPTION:Hidden within every smartphone’s messaging app is Textopolis\, a bustling city where all the emojis live\, hoping to be selected by the phone’s user. In this world\, each emoji has only one facial expression–except for Gene\, who was born without a filter and is bursting with multiple expressions. Determined to become “normal” like the other emojis\, Gene enlists the help of his best friend Hi-5 and the notorious code breaker emoji Jailbreak. Together\, they embark on an epic “app-venture” to find the Code that will “fix” Gene. But when a greater danger threatens the phone\, the fate of all emojis depends on these three unlikely friends\, who must save their world before it’s deleted forever! \nThis PG-rated movie runs for 1 hour and 26 minutes. \nThis FREE event requires no registration and is sponsored by the Friends of the DeKalb Public Library. \nFor additional information\, please contact Theresa at theresaw@dkpl.org or at (815) 756-9568 ext. 3350. \n
